Tottenham make move to sign Noah Okafor as last-gap AC Milan offer revealed
Tottenham have enquired about signing Noah Okafor from AC Milan, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, as relayed by Sempre Milan.
The Milan-focused outlet shared a section of the Italian newspaper‘s print edition via their website on 2 February that revealed that Spurs, as well as West Ham United, are interested in the 24-year-old attacker.
Okafor, meanwhile, is tipped to leave the Serie A giants before the winter transfer window slams shut on Monday (3 February), with even a loan move on the cards.
Daniel Levy to sign Noah Okafor at Tottenham?
It is worth noting that Okafor was close to joining RB Leipzig earlier in the window, but saw the transfer collapse despite even undergoing a medical with the Bundesliga club.
That is likely to raise concerns among his suitors, especially this late in the window.
However, the Switzerland international does not appear to have any injury concerns as he was named in Milan’s matchday squad to face Inter Milan on Sunday, 2 February.
Okafor’s ability to play across the front three could make him an attractive option for Ange Postecoglou.

With Dominic Solanke, Brennan Johnson and Timo Werner sidelined with injuries, Okafor could offer Postecoglou an extra option in attack at least until the end of the season.
